Last year we celebrated our love of obscure video games and kicked off our Tetris Rap Attack competition - in THIS episode we reveal the winners! This humble competition asked fans to remix the music of hidden SNES gem, Tetris Attack (aka Panel De Pon) and the winners would be selected by rappers Astronautalis, Masurao of Krondor Krew, and MC Cool Whip to rap over them. In this episode, we're joined by Grand Prize rapping judge, storytelling rap indie sensation, Astronautalis, to discuss the origins of the lyrics he laid on the winning beat as well as the dark depths of his 40k obsession, and his love for this cute-as-hell puzzle game.


Congratulations to our winners, Evers McGee, TheHT, and Nomar Slevik and a big thank you to everyone who contributed.
